Designed to Work Royal Roads University is the only public university in Canada designed exclusively to meet the needs of working professionals. Our convenient learning models maximize convenience and accessibility while our undergraduate, graduate and executive education programs offer applied, real-world relevance and experience.

RRU is not your typical university  Established by the Government of British Columbia in 1995 as a “special purpose” public university  No departments/traditional disciplines  Interdisciplinary and problem focus  Research mandate – applied, professional practice  Sector strategy – entrepreneurship, leadership, sustainability, conflict studies  All undergrad learners transfer from other Universities, at end of second year, or as a result of their undergraduate degree completion, so extensive articulation agreements are in place with colleges and universities across Canada and internationally
